Answer:
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a dispute between the State of Israel, established in 1948, and the Palestinian Arabs, as part of a wider animosity between Israel and the Arab world. The controversy has continued since then and concerns the existence of the state of Israel, its borders, and Jewish-Arab relations in the area between the Mediterranean and the Jordan River. The foundations of the establishment of the Jewish state date back to the 19th century, when the emerging Zionist movement began to encourage the migration of Jews to the territory of present-day Israel in order to establish their own state in the historical homeland of the Jews.
A solution to the conflict has been sought without result from the two-state model, in which the West Bank and Gaza would become an independent Palestinian state. The situation in Gaza has become the most difficult humanitarian situation in the conflict, with Hamas, which has been classified as a terrorist organization, gaining control of Gaza in various ways, to which Israel has responded with violent retaliation and the blockade of the Gaza Strip. Egypt has also closed its borders to Gaza to prevent the spread of terrorism.
Answer:
Coal: 7.4 billion tonnes
Explanation:
The World Coal Association estimates that there are more than one trillion tonnes of coal reserves worldwide, enough to last 150 years at current rates of production, so it is unsurprising to see coal ranked as the most-mined mineral in the world.
While China has consistently led the world in production – the country was responsible for 3.3 billion tonnes in 2016 – this was down 16% from the 3.9 billion tonnes produced in 2012. Chinese coal output slumped below the 3.4 billion tonne-threshold predicted in 2016 and the trend may continue, as renewable energy sources become more widespread.
The Chinese decline has mirrored a trend in worldwide coal production, which fell to 7.4 billion tonnes in 2016 from 8.2 billion in 2012. While coal production has increased in Australia and Russia in the last five years, both South Africa and the US have seen sharp declines in production of anthracite and bituminous coal. American coal production in particular has fallen from over 900 million tonnes in 2012 to 782 million in 2016, the lowest figure since 1979.
